SUMMARY:Cloud Native May Meetup: Change-driven Architecture and Serving Inference at Scale
DESCRIPTION:Cloud Native PDX May: Change-driven Architecture and Serving Inference at Scale\n\nThis May is all about scaling; scaling your infrastructure management\, or scaling your LLM inference serving. Join us to find out about some open source tools to make managing large modern stacks easier.\n\nDate: Thursday\, May 14\nTime: 5:30–7:30 PM\nLocation: Reperio Health\, 4784 SE 17th Ave Suite 120\, Portland\, OR\n\nRecording: Talks are typically recorded (opt-in by speakers)\n\nA big thank you to Microsoft for sponsoring food & beverage\, and to Reperio Health\, our venue host.\n\nDrasi\, a new take on Change Driven Architectures: Aman Singh\, Microsoft\n\nModern cloud-native systems constantly generate data changes\, and applications often need to react to them. Building change-driven solutions that respond to specific changes in distributed data is challenging. This talk introduces Drasi\, a CNCF Sandbox project that simplifies the design and implementation of change-driven architectures using Graph Queries and pluggable components. For example\, with Drasi you can declaratively write automation to detect and respond to running containers with newly identified vulnerabilities across pods and deployments in a Kubernetes cluster. Join us for a walkthrough of real-world use cases that show how Drasi’s approach brings structure and responsiveness to complex distributed environments – without writing custom code.\n\nDynamo: Large Scale Distributed Inference\nDavid Zeir\, Director\, DL System Software\, Nvidia\nNeelay Shah\, Distinguished Engineer\, Nvidia\n\nThis talk introduces Dynamo\, NVIDIA’s open-source Kubernetes-native distributed inference platform. We’ll cover the problem space\, walk through Dynamo’s architecture — disaggregated prefill/decode\, KV-cache-aware routing\, and a transport layer that moves KV blocks directly between GPUs — and dig into the Kubernetes integration for scheduling\, autoscaling\, and graceful failure handling. We’ll close with a demo of Dynamo serving a real workload.\nTags: kubernetes\, containers\, cloud\, intrastructure\, devops\, LLM\, inference\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482554

SUMMARY:Building D3.js Visualizations For Non-Technical Audiences
DESCRIPTION:This presentation introduces D3.js as a powerful tool for transforming complex data into clear\, meaningful visual stories which non-technical audiences can understand and use. It explains what D3.js is\, how it works with web technologies and why visualization is essential for revealing patterns and insights raw data alone cannot show.\n\nThis talk emphasizes designing visualizations with the audience in mind while also covering core D3 concepts such as data binding\, scales\, layouts and interactive graphics. Through examples\, case studies\, design principles and practical tips\, this presentation demonstrates how builders can use D3.js to communicate ideas effectively and empower people to discover insights from data.\nTags: portland design thinkers\, data visualizations\, UX research\, problem solving\, collaboration\, innovation\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482543
